Access online newspapers with BorrowBox and the Irish Newspaper Archive
From May 1st the PressReader service will no longer be available to library members.
This service will instead be provided by BorrowBox, following a national tender process for the provision of eServices in our libraries.
BorrowBox will provide access to eBooks and eAudiobooks as well as magazines and newspapers through the ePress tab on the app.
To access the online newspapers you need to be a library member. If you are not already registered then you can join online and start using our eServices straight away with your temporary barcode.
Download the BorrowBox app to get access to a range of newspapers, including The Meath Chronicle.
Read local, national and international news in English and other languages.
You can borrow up to 99 newspapers or magazines at a time. Loans are automatically returned after 3 weeks but the titles are available to borrow again straight away should you need. Or you can renew the items before the return date.
You can choose to subscribe to a title and if you do the next issue of the newspaper/magazine will be automatically checked out to your account as soon as it is available on BorrowBox.
Irish Newspaper Archive is the largest digital archive of Irish Newspapers in the world, with over 40 titles from all over the country. This gives you access to millions of newspaper articles spanning over 300 years of Irish history.
You can access this archive in all of our branches on our Public Internet PCs
